Cinematic sounds…

[GWxxx]

With the Cinematic Grand and now the Hybrid Harp plus the various midi collections  –  Toontrack is really aiming for to corner the market when it comes to indie filmmaking and low budget projects. But there is yet another step to take  –  bass sounds and low end atmosphere sounds. An EZBass expansion?

Let me suggest:

• Bassclarinet and Contrabassclarinet in a combined instrument. Easy to capture but very versatile in use.
• Bottleblow. (There are some old free once out there, but really, it could be done better…?)
• Sousaphone or Helicon (used in Sweden). Bottomheavy with punch in the attack (not the VSL classic contrabass Tuba).
• Creapy low sounds for Horror. Setup more like a sound library for low frequency sounds.

Thanks for the suggestion GWxxx, I’ve forwarded the message to our sound designers!

Thanks for the response and I would like to point out one more thing. In the spring I bought The Vintage Upright Piano and I thought a lot and hard about why I wanted it, already owning a ton of pianoplugins that honestly sounds better… What quality did it possess that made me need one more? The answer was closeness!!! When you need intimacy and a feeling of closeness. I felt it clearly in the Salsa-video. The plugin was closer then the actual piano. Many instrumentplugins for filmmaking on the market are big, lush Hollywood sounds and films done by indie- or “one man crews” are more personal and with fewer  talents acting in the picture (often only one) and you at Toontrack have already facilitated this by having av nob with more or LESS ambient or reverb for a dry sound… I have a Harmonium in my parents house, but I think I rather use yours (should I ever do a film clip of Norrland and someone picking lingonberries)!
